Oscar Predictions Contest

Post by anonymous1980 »

Here are the rules just in case you guys forgot them:

01. Predict the winners in all 23 categories.

02. You can predict one winner and one OPTIONAL runner-up.

03. A correct prediction with a runner-up gets 2 points, a correct runner-up gets 1 point and a correct prediction with no runner-up gets 3 points.

04. If three or less people correctly predict a category, they will get DOUBLE the points (including runner-up predictions). If you're the ONLY one to correctly predict a category, you get TRIPLE the points. (NOTE: This rule is also applicable to the bonus tie-breaker questions as well)

05. Highest score wins!

06. Deadline for entries/changes would be when the Oscar red carpet show begins!

OPTIONAL BONUS TIE BREAKER POINTS!

01. Who will be the last person in the In Memoriam montage? (three points)

02. Who will be the FIRST person in the In Memoriam montage? (three points)

03. Which Best Picture nominees will go home empty-handed? (it has to be exactly right) (five points)
